Part of the final batch of Small F carriages from Brown, Marshalls & Co., Ltd., of Birmingham, this carraige survived in regular use until the 1998 season when it was withdrawn in need of bodywork attention and stored; the guards' compartment of this carriage is at the northern end, in common with F.15 which remains in service today.  Stored in the carriage shed at Port Erin Station in recent years, it had the purple lake livery applied in 1985 as part of a partial refurbishment which also saw roof boards added in an attempt to make the roof profile match later rolling stock.  This had the unfortunate effect of retaining water on the roof which ultimately led to the carriage's untimely withdrawal from traffic.
